They make the king glad with their wickedness, and the princes with their lies.

George Leo Haydock
AD 1849
Glad To please Jeroboam and their other kings, they have given themselves up to the worship of idols, which are mere falsehood and lies. (Challoner)
We do not find one good king of Israel. (Calmet)
But Jeroboam principally caused Israel to sin. (Haydock)
His infernal policy changed the religion of his subjects.
Made the king glad: To please Jeroboam, and their other kings they have given themselves up to the wicked worship of idols, which are mere falsehood and lies.
